FMS on EC2 in Europe (Ireland)

I was looking at the pricings page when i noticed Europe is not listed. Is FMS on EC2 available in Europe at all?
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/amazonwebservices/
And if not, which region would be best suited for NW europe? Is the connection good enough for bulk users?
This is somewhat important since we focus on europe.
Thanks,

Thanks for your reply, but this is sounds disappointing. The startring costs of setting up our own FMS servers and aquiring the licences is somewhat prohibitive in stepping into the FMS (and most of all P2P) business, so the EC2 option was looking very attractive (for all the standard pro-cloud arguments).
Can you elaborate on why FMS on EC2 is not available in all Amazon Regions? My guess is it's probably some legal or business issue?
And regarding our options if we cannot run the standard Adobe provided AMI's:
Can we still instal FMS on EC2 ourselves if we get normal FMS Enterprise licences? And if we'd do that, what will this mean for the amount of RTFMP connection cap like the one that is applied to the instances based on the Adobe AMIs?

FMS on EC2 are unstable

Hi,
I am using FMS on EC2 from March and its performance make me please. Unfortunately, it becomes unstable from this weekend, we can not connect to FMS in our video chat even though we do not modify any changes in client and server code, the proof is when we download the development server and connect our app to this server, our app works perfectly. I also check the port 80. 1935 and it worked as expected.
I also use the test port program http://www.jakehilton.com/?q=node/43, and sometimes the connection RTMP (port 80, 1935) works well and sometimes it does not. I do think the FMS is not unstable but not sure how to fix. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks much.

Why is the instance not installed with AWS in my region (US instead of Europe)

Yesterday I installed the 'SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP & SAP Business Warehouse 7.4 SP8 on SAP HANA 1.0 SP8 [Developer Edition]' over through CAL ( caltdc.netweaver.ondemand.com ) and ended up with an instance in AWS running in region US (Virginia) instead of Europe (Ireland) where I am based.
Previously I installed 'SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP & SAP Business Warehouse 7.4 SP5 on SAP HANA 1.0 SP7 [Developer Edition]' which I could select in the AWS Marketplace and thereby selecting machine size and location myself.
I intended to do the same today, but could not find the current dev edition above for selection in the AWS Marketplace.
Why not?
Running both instance in parallell today I noticed a clear difference in service level between the AWS instance running in Ireland and the new one running in the US.

Thanx for this update! I have gone ahead and installed in Frankfurt and the installtion went really smooth so far so good
The only thing that is not working as I expect is the ODBC-connectivity. Maybe you can tell me what I am doing wrong.
I have added port 30015 to one of the predelivered security groups (sg-ab53b4c2).
In the 'ODBC Datasource Admin (64-bit)' I entered for server:port
ec2-XX-XX-XX-XX.eu-central-1.compute.amazonaws.com:30015
Then I have tried the following credentials:
user SYSTEM and the master password (with which I am successfully connecting in HANA Studio)
user SYSTEM and 'manager'
but get
You got any idea?

Power Converter USA to Ireland

I purchased plug adapters for outlets for my new macbook pro but I was wondering if I needed to get a power converter that will convert 110V USA power to 240 volt Europe (Ireland) power. Or does the macbook pro have these capabilities? I don't want to plug in my new computer and end up frying it!!

The MBP's power adapter runs on 100-240 V and 50/60 Hz. You just need the adapter so the flat North American prongs fit into the outlets in overseas.

FMS Server issues this weekend?

Currently I don't believe that anyone that has sent their phone in for repairs or replacement has had the issue with the touch buttons fixed. A few of the members of this forum have determined a fix for the issue but from what I have read Nokia has yet to implement something similar to fix the issue so that means people are still having the issue when they get their phones back or a new phone.
Basically, what causes the issue is that there is interference from the speaker magnet that causes the buttons to be unresponsive or act on their own. This issue can be fixed but Nokia will not allow me to post it on the forum because it technically means voiding your warranty. Hopefully, they will take a look at what it takes to fix this issue instead of just deleting and ignoring the posts of people that have found the answer.
I used to have the issue every time I watched a video, played a game or even just surfing online. I applied this fix last night and have not had the issue once since then and I watched a couple hours of video, sat through an hour long conference call which I also sent texts during, and played online.
Having this problem fixed makes it feel like a new phone and so much more responsive! I will give it a few more days of testing and then I will be putting together a video, an instructable and an email into Nokia support so hopefully everyone can get this issue fixed!
If you have any questions about this please feel free to message me!

FMS as a solution Now?

I've tried this forum before with no <3 so far. I hope this time I can get some help from the community...
I'm building out the baseline demo for a startup and I was hoping to use FMS as a solution, but our service will require that live video and DVR'd video (saved for VOD is OK too) be available from IOS devices (iPad, iPhone). I absolutely have to have a solution (however kludged for now) that enables us to deliver live streaming video on these devices.
I've been using FMS on EC2 in both "production" and development environments and have HTTP Dynamic streaming to Strobe, but a flash player this isn't very helpful to me - I'm good with RTMP in these cases.
I need this solution so that I can demo now. My option, for the moment, is too look at other solutions.
Examples, helpful docs, an official Adobe release date on the functionality would be super.
Thanks and cheers,

FMS 3 streaming Live with a 3 sec delay

Hi,
I have a console created that has up to 8 Video Consoles, one
main one and 7 small ones.
4 are on a Gig LAN so there are only slight delays.
One is in Moscow with a 2 mb lan, and using Flash Media
Encoder in the Moscow Office and the FMS 3 server is in Ireland.
the FMS Server is on a dedicated Windows 2003 Server with 4 gb Ram
and 500 gb Hard drive and is used for nothing else.
Even with the Flash Media Encoder settings for the Logitiech
9000 webcam set to 200 kb per sec, no Audio and 15 fps, there is
still a 3 second Video delay.
The video is more important than the Audio as we can use
Teleconferencing for the Audio, but is there anyway I can improve
the Video stream speed please?

To increase server performance, FMS 3 comes up with Aggregate
Messages(new feature) set to enabled in Application.xml. This might
introduce a choppy experience when NetStream buffer on client side
is very small.
Assuming that it might be the real cause in this case, the
fix includes:
- Increasing NetStream buffer on client side to a suitably
higher value (1-5 seconds or more).
- (when delay due to buffering is undesirable) Modifying
Application.xml to disable Aggregate messages/publisher queues.

How to use keyword hierarchy?

Hiya,
In my Keywords HUD, I have created a hierarchical order of keywords, such as
- Europe
-- Ireland
-- Germany
- Prints
-- A4
-- 6x4
If I want to assign the keyword "Ireland" to a bunch of photos, I select all these photos and drag the keyword from the HUD to the photos.
What I am struggling with are 2 problems:
- How do I browse interactively by keyword hierarchy? Can I select "Europe" as a keyword in order to see all photos being taken in Europe? Can I select "Gemany" afterwards in order to see the subset of photos being taken in Germany?
- How do I create smart folders containing all photos being taken in Europe? If I take as a search criteria "IPTC > Keywords" and search for "Europe", I don't get any feedback, but if I search for "Ireland", I get all the photos being taken in Ireland.
Does Aperture ignore the upper levels (e.g. "Europe", "Prints") for all its features?
Is the hierarchy exclusively used for the presentation of keywords in the Keywords HUD?
Thanks in advance for any feedback,
Stephan

Maybe I'm missing something, as I typically ask questions, not answer them, but doesn't this work for you?
Either type Europe into the quick search section of the Search Panel or toggle open the "text" criteria and enter it there.
That should find the images by the upper level keywords.
You can narrow the search by selecting match "all" and adding more text items for upper level keywords, or by selecting lower level keywords from the keywords criteria section.
The manual states that you can quick search multiple text items by separating them by commas, but that didn't seem to work for me. Aperture seems to treat upper level keywords as text, and they can be searched as such.
Once the search is completed, click the create smart album, and you should have what you are looking for, I hope.
Good Luck!

How to add the IP address helper command to the switch

Hi
I am trouble shooting a SF 200-48P and I am a bit lost without a CLI not used to the GUI. What I need to know is how to add the IP address helper command to the switch?
I have a number of IP phones which are not getting an IP address from DHCP (PCs which are diasy chained off the phones are all working correctly). On the higher end switches I would have added the IP address helper command to the VLAN and that would have sorted it. However I can't seem to figure out how to do this on the small business switch.
Thanks
Lorne

Thanks Rizwan. I was banging my head wishing they weren't small business switches as I felt lost without the command line!

What is the diffrent to encode in pal or ntsc?

hi
my source is analoge pal STB and i want to encode live streaming to FMS wordwide (us and europe)
what is diffrent between pal and ntsc?
what is best method to config?
thanks

If your source is PAL then use PAL settings, ie resolution that is the same aspect ratio of the PAL signal and also no more than 25fps. When being viewed on a computer it really doesn’t matter as the client isn’t constrained to formats like that.
You will probably get a better quality encode from PAL as the slightly lower frame rate means more bits per frame. Colours are usually more reliable from PAL also

Ipad usage international?

Can I use my ipad while traveling in Europe (ireland) from the US?
THANK YOU!

Yes. The AC adaptors switch automatically. However, you may need a wall outlet adaptor for countries that don't use outlets like in the US. Get the Travel Adaptors from Apple's store.

Live Stream connection limit per server

I Need to Broadcast 20,000 to 40,000 Live Streams.! (Bitrate : 128Kbps / Viewers Per Stream Apprx-10 Server : Adobe FMS Server Amazon EC2 Instance - Bandwidth Apprx 100mbps)
My Question is
1. How Many Concurrent connections Possible for one Adobe FMS Server? (Amazon EC2 Instance)
2. is this possible to use RTMFP for this process? (20,000 Connections Via Amazon Adobe FMS Server EC2 Instance )
3. if Possible Over RTMFP then How Many Developer Keys Need for this Operation. (or) Pricing Details for the Developer Key. (or) Any Separate Key[s] Available For Amazon EC2 Instance?
Thanks
Sarma

1. Looking at your stream specs - its like 128 X 10 ~ around 1 Mbps for one stream considering 10 clients. And considering bandwidth of 100 mbps for instance you can support around 1000 clients. But few things i want to know before we can conlude on figures - what is NIC capacity of the instance.
2. Yes if you using FMS on AWS offering - you can use RTMFP
3. You don't need developer keys if you are using FMS on AWS offering to use RTMFP

Standard A8 VM responsiveness

Hello,
I'm trying to perform some CPU intensive tasks so rather than set a system up locally I thought I'd use Azure to get it done quickly and cheaply.
I've created a new Windows Server 2008 R2 VM (Standard A8 size) running a clean installation of SQL Server 2005 and nothing else. There's no workload going through the system yet other than me logging in to download some data files from Azure Blob storage
that are needed for testing.
However I'm finding that while doing this, the system appears sluggish and the RDP session appears to stop updating from time to time. CPU and Memory usage are nothing at all, all I'm doing currently is downloading 3GB of data (4 files in total) from blob
storage using the command line tools. While this is going on Windows Explorer is unresponsive and I can't even open another Explorer window, the download speed displayed by the CLI tool stops for minutes on end, and then starts going again.
Right now the RDP session has frozen and I'm unable to reconnect to it.
I even went as far as deleting the first VM I setup and created another but I see the same performance issues and "hanging".
Is anyone else seeing issues or have experienced this in the past?
Thanks,
Andy

Training Recommendations ConfigMgr 2012

Hi All,
Does anyone have any good recommendations for training in SCCM 2012? - I'm particularly interested in OS Deployment as that is a weak area for me. I'm not looking for official MS courses - more real-life scenarios rather than the basics.
The truesec training seem like they might be what I need - but the ones I want are based in the US which works out very expensive when I account for travel and accomodation. I'm based in Europe (Ireland).
Many thanks!

Why don't you start by creating your own lab (you will learn a lot on your own).

FMS won't run on RHEL 6.2 EC2 instance - _defaultRoot__edge1 experienced 1 failure

I had the same problem on CentOS 6.2 x86_64, albeit not on EC2. It seems that the installer creates a symlink to the i686 libpcap (libcap.so.1 -> /lib/libcap.so.2) and fmsedge won't run with it. Manually removing that symlink and instead linking to the libcap.so.2 in /lib64 solved the problem for me.
cd /opt/adobe/fms
rm libcap.so.1
